Fantastic, Mastiff, thanks a lot, that did for me! Bizzar, the standard CLOD-Conf.ini-MeshShowLod=0
Anyway, great job!

You have some misunderstandings of the patch and the aircraft, you should read the READ ME, and Manuals, which can be found here:

I just want to give you a little feedback, though I haven't spend any time on bombers.

#1 What I really love are the glints on AC-surfaces in the distance, even though I find that now approaching AC are going to be "invisible" longer than before but I will compare it with the unmoded version - will check it out & and let you now then.

#2 I like the "glossy"FX on my wings very much! If you prefere less, scale it out in the weathering sliders, works fine for me.

#3 The colours over UK are much better, but I would just suggest not to touch the colours of the French side, because weather is warmer here and fields are looking more golden during summertime.

#4 I love the introduction of all the 100-octane-fuel types, especially the 109 4/N is a thick prick. Unfortunately for all those "whiners", who complained the lack of 100oc MKI Hurris and Spits some time ago. Now the empire has stroke back

#5 I like the different Spit- & E4-pits and sure, one day we'll see animated trim wheels and the new flap indicators in the MKI-models will be animated,too.

#6 The rework of the FM is superb, the SU26 is less "helicopteric"/VTOL now and a 109 can loose a wing, because of it seems to be a little bit less sluggish now and it can take faster speed - bad surprise
I could reach the top ceiling with the 109E4/N at 10450m, even when the cooling limit of 78°C (Flea's Database) has been broken by~90°. I haven`t done it with a Spit - I got 31800ft/29900ft in Spit 1A 100Oc in the final -unmodded- patch - I'll let you know.

#7 I really appreciate that you have ironed out the CLOD-altitude bug and you have standardized the atmosphere conditions on 1015mb/760mmhg and 15°C, so I don`t have to deal with altimeter-adjustments a beginning DF in QM. It was a pretty cool event however, to impress some people eventualy around me

#8 Nevertheless, while it is still quite easy in a SpitMKI to climb after take-off and handle the revolutions of 2speedpitchprop, it becomes more and more difficult if you are above 4000ft. Then you can't use the 2nd stage of the pitch anymore without reducing the boost pressure down to somewhat of -/+0 lb/sin. Try this out in the new "Manston"Raid mission! I'm quite curious for my next top ceiling attempts in it. Take care off your cooling temp. Once the prop has stopped spinning, because you didn't, then you wish that the big van in front of you would still revolving and going on
cooling ya
When this is all due to to redesign of FM and atmosphere-density in height and the mass flow conditions in the radiator, than Chapeau for the immersion.

#9 I'm thankful that I can trying to fly blind now, because of you've stopped the icing in the clouds in
standard missions. Otherwise you had to deal with the FM.

#10 The GUI-RL-photos are much better to me than nazis-with-deutsche-Dogge-dogs-pics or "grounded" tanks while I'm waiting for ready-for-take-off.

Last but not least the things I don't like:
#1 The decals of some AC types are disappeared now, here in the photo Spit MK I, but MKII as well, decals enabled, though.
#2 Is there now emergency boost (1,45atü) in the E4/N?
#3 the evetualy longer "invisible mode" off approaching AC, described in #1

This all is said to honour your work. Please take not of that I've just tried it out for some hours, don't get me wrong when my items are not exact ore even wrong in some points, but I'm quite sure that it is a huge step into a very good direction.

Sorry, Buzzard,I read the README, manuals & historicalmanual section, but I haven't had a look in the "CLOD-Flightmanual" section. In there I found infos for the use of MKI 2speed pitch.
Thx for the tip.

Try turning on map icons so you can follow the waypoints using the map, then the AI will follow you

You still have to take off with AI control for your flight to follow you getting them to shoot at something is another story.

This is another misconception about the game that helped doom MG and all future development, a real pity!...we really lost something very special due to ignorance on a whole host of imagined issues with the game...observe the time needed for AI to form up here, timing is everything

AI needs to be set up properly in the mission design




and here in the final pre-modded game

Default New COD Down load

Hi All, Im an old IL2 fighter pilot from the original release of IL2 Sturmovik. Ive had all the versions all the way up to 1946, including all the patches, and still have them buried deep in my external HD some place but my PC blew up and Ive been away from the game for almost 3 years (shame on me I know) ...but I digress.
I've just upgraded my MB im running Windows 7 Home and VID Card TI 650 MSI and have recently downloaded Cliffs of Dover, I must say at first the detail was impressive, but thats where it stops. Within is minutes I noticed glitches here and there which we sim flyers know is just a part of the experience, especially the bug where when flying my Spit there's a lovely lady sitting on my lap at angels 3000, now I realize the pilot is trying to impress his girl but ...come on!
So I guess the real question is where can I find ALL the patches and in sequence so I can get this game running correctly?
